cromox® Eye Hooks COHF
The cromox® stainless steel eye hooks COHF with Safety Latch stand for maximum corrosion resistance, reliability and durability. These eye hooks from Ketten-Wälder are made of first-class stainless steel and meet the highest requirements. They are available in various dimensions, weights and capacities. Ketten-Wälder has its own test laboratory certified by Lloyd's Register. All cromox® products are thoroughly tested here. When you purchase cromox® round steel chains, anchor points, Eye hooks and other accessories, you will receive a corresponding certificate.
The load capacity of the stainless steel eye hooks COHF offered is between 0.40 t and 8.00 t. The hooks with safety latch therefore cover a wide range of industrial applications. Eye hooks are used in many industrial sectors as an essential accessory to connect loads to lifting equipment. The hooks are attached to the wire rope or chain using the eye. Once the hook is securely attached, the safety latch snaps forward to prevent the load from falling.
Materials and standards for cromox® stainless steel eye hooks
cromox® eye hooks are made of special AISI 318 LN duplex stainless steel grade 60, which is defined by certain requirements for lifting equipment and similar products. Grade 60 stainless steel from Ketten Wälder is known for its exceptional corrosion resistance and strength, even in acidic environments. The stainless steel is further refined and blasted at Ketten Wälder to maximize its resistance to the harshest environmental conditions.
Each eye hook is manufactured in accordance with the strict DIN EN 1677-2 standard, which guarantees the quality and safety of the product. As with all slings and related accessories, eye hooks, safety hooks, and load hooks must comply with various regulations and standards.

It is is designated X2CrNiMoN22-5-3 and is particularly resistant to stress corrosion cracking and pitting in aggressive environments such as chlorinated media. The ferrite and austenite phases it contains give it high strength and good resistance to various forms of corrosion. In addition, this steel has a particularly high yield strength. The result is an eye hook that is both robust and durable, meeting the demands of modern industry. The material is used, for example, in the chemical industry or in desalination plants.
